The Beauty and the Brain

Chapter 72

Olive Entertainment would make the photos of Carly public every week, and paid spammers frantically

flattered Carly’s innocence and cuteness. The school drama Youth would be popular.

However, Marie had difficulty in shooting Against the War.

Darwin was ordinary in his acting skills. At the beginning of the play, he was a playboy, obsessing with

alcohol and lust. But in the middle of the play, the Constance family went bankrupt, and its members

died. Jaime had to live a hard life in society, and others would bully him.

But Darwin could not do well in those sections.

Darwin was born into a wealthy family, and he had never suffered those pains. What’s more, no one

had bullied him before. How could he have such feelings?

Besides, in the middle of the play, someone even threw Jaime out of the ballroom and beat him.

heavily, Jamie also needed to pull a rickshaw to the dock to carry goods and kneel in front of others.

Darwin refused to cooperate. He was handsome, and how could he bear this and let others hit him?

Even if he made a bet with Marie, no one could force him if he wanted to have a substitute.

However, Shawn and Marie refused to use a substitute. These were not dangerous actions or

professional martial arts scenes, so there was no need to use a substitute. And the audience would

have a bad enjoying experience.

So both of them remained deadlocked. The crew had no way but to stop working. The leading actor

was not cooperative, so the crew could not continue to work.

The director and Shawn were all anxious. Andres also heard this, so he called Marie, “Sister-in-law, I

can’t stop him. How about using a substitute? You have worked in this play for a long time, and it would

be a pity to stop shooting.”

Marie said, “Okay. You can tell Darwin he should not come to the crew tomorrow.”

Iliana stopped Marie when Marie hung up, “Marie, don’t be impulsive. If Darwin leaves the crew, how

about your play?”

Sasha also said, “Let’s find another way. We will suffer great loss if we change him now.”

Marie shook her head, “I am trying to find a way.”

Darwin stayed at home for a day, but Marie did not compromise to let him get a substitute.

He waited for another day, and he still failed.

A week later, no one informed him he could use a substitute.

Andres came back and asked, “Why are you still at home?”

Darwin said, “I’ll wait for Marie to let me have a substitute!”

Andres was shocked, “Oh, you don’t need to do that. Marie called me that day, saying you should

not need to work in the crew anymore. I was too busy, so I forgot this matter.”

Darwin was angry, “How could you forget this matter? Are you my brother?”

Andres shrugged his shoulder, “Anyway, you don’t want to act in this play. Isn’t that fine for you?”

Darwin was at a loss.

He drove straight to the crew. When he arrived at the crew, the director was talking to Sasha. All

staff were busy. Darwin was only an actor in the crew.

Darwin ran in, and someone looked up at him, whispering. Then they all went to work. Darwin was

probably the first leading actor who was fired by the crew.

Darwin came to the director, but the director ignored him, “Didn’t you see that I was talking to Sasha?

Let’s talk about your matter later.”

Darwin stopped Sasha. Sasha glanced at him and sad indifferently, “Mr. Robert, I’m busy. I don’t

have time to play with you.”

Darwin had cooperated with Sasha for a long time, and they argued with each other from time to time.

Sometimes, the assistant would come to persuade them. But Sasha had never been so

indifferent to Darwin.

Darwin was furious. When he saw Marie walking over, he rushed over and questioned, “Why don’t I

know about the shooting?”

Marie smiled. “You said you didn’t want to shoot, right? I agree with you, so you don’t need to come

here. We have deleted your scenes and got another leading actor.”

Darwin had worked hard to shoot this play for a month. But now, Marie said that she had deleted all the

scenes, so Darwin was anxious, “Why did you delete my shooting scene?”

“I find the scriptwriter and the actors. I invested in this play, so I could delete what I wanted.” Marie

said.

Even though Darwin was a simple man, he worked hard in this play. He shouted angrily, “Are you

crazy? Do you know how much you will lose if you change to another actor?”

“Yes, I am crazy, so I think you are the one and only Jaime!” Marie shouted back and glanced at

Darwin. Then she signed and said, “Mr. Robert, please go back. You don’t have to worry about how

much I’ve lost.”

Darwin was anxious, “I just need a substitute to help me. Is that necessary to fire me?”

Marie frowned and said, “Of course. Our whole crew has worked in this play, and we can’t let Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

everything down the drain for you!”

“Darwin, Linvited you to act Jamie in this play. If you wanted to be the younger master of the Robert

family, you could go home. I would find other actors to work with Sasha. Or I could delete the role of

Jaime. But I would never allow an irresponsible man like you to be my leading actor.” Marie said loudly,

and Darwin was speechless.

Sasha walked over and grabbed Marie, saying, “Marie, let’s go. Mr. Keynes is waiting for you to revise

the script.”

Marie walked to Shawn quickly. Darwin grabbed Sasha and asked, “Why did you change the script?”

Sasha glanced at Darwin and said, “Both Marie and Mr. Keynes believe that you are the only Jaime.

If you don’t act in this play, we can only revise the script.”

Darwin wanted to say something, and Sasha added, “Darwin, I just think you have a bad temper in the

past. And you are not the man in those paid spammers’ mouths, and you are not a man with poor

acting skills.”

“Sasha, I’m not…” Darwin wanted to retort.

“Whether you’re this kind of man or not, you are a man who loves acting in my heart. You will never

give up halfway like this.” Sasha turned around and walked back to the set, leaving Darwin alone in.

a daze.

Darwin looked at Marie and Sasha, who were busy with the crew, and then he looked at the working

staff. And he was just an outsider.

A week ago, he was still the one and only Jaime. All female assistants would still blush when they saw

him, and they all wanted to get his autograph.

At that time, Sasha would press her lips disdainfully. Marie pushed Sasha over and asked Sasha to

take photos with him. Both of them looked at each other in disgust.

But now, everyone was busy. It seemed that he had suddenly been kicked out of the team. Marie was

telling him that the world was still spinning without him.

He came here angrily, but he was dumbfounded after hearing Marie and Sasha’s words.

Darwin came back and stayed quietly at home all night for the first time. He asked Andres, “Andres, am

I wrong?”

Andres walked over and touched his forehead, saying, “You don’t have a fever…”

Darwin was at a loss for words.

Andres threw his jacket to the maid and sat on the sofa. He asked, “What’s wrong? Did Marie teach

you a lesson?”

Darwin blushed and said stubbornly, “No!”

Andres took out his phone and said, “Then I’ll call her.”

Darwin grabbed the phone and said, “Brother! I’m talking to you!”

Andres sighed and patted Darwin on the shoulder. Then he said, “Hey, Marie tried her best to invite you

as the leading actor. She was not kidding with you, and she wanted to do her career. What’s more, she

also wanted to help you.”

Lying on the sofa, Darwin was silent for a long time. Then he said, “Brother, I want to act as Jaime.”

Andres smiled and said, “I can’t make this decision.”

Darwin said in annoyance, “Brother! Stop making jokes with me!”

Andres took the phone and said, “Okay, okay. I’ll make an appointment with Marie, and you should

seize the opportunity yourself.”

Andres had a gathering with his friends at home, and he called Dennis, asking him to come with

Marie.

The next night.

Dennis drove to Andres’s house and went in with Marie.

A group of men and women were chatting in the banquet hall. Dennis tilted his head and said to Marie,

“If you don’t want to stay here, we’ll go back.” Marie smiled and nodded.

Andres greeted them loudly, “Mr. Whitney!”

People all looked over and greeted Dennis politely. It seemed that all people knew Dennis.

Nataly let go of Andres’s hand and walked over. Then she said, “Dennis, I thought you wouldn’t come

today. You never come to such parties before.”

“Marie wants to come here, so I am here,” Dennis said.

Nataly changed her expression, “Ms. Spence, you’re here too. Let’s play together.”

She was speechless.

She stayed beside Dennis for such a long time. Hadn’t she seen her?

Andres walked over and said, “Marie, don’t drink too much, or Mr. Whitney will tear my house

apart.

Marie stuck out her tongue and said, “Then let him tear your house apart.”

A few men walked over and called Dennis to play poker. Dennis said to Marie, “Will you go with me?”
